Google Image Labeler

Article No :155 | April 16, 2007 | by Constantinos Demetriadis

Google has launched it’s new Google Image Labeler service, which in fact is not really a service at all. Basically they’re using the community’s power to label every single image in their Google Image Database. The intuitive way in which they set the users in pairs not only provides much more accurate results, but also is kinda fun to play with. After fiddling with it for a while and going through a half dozen images, I think this is probably one of the most efficient uses of community power ever put in effect.
